Market flash: Herma van den Pol

Chance of record milk price decreases

18 October 2017 - Redactie Boerenbusiness - 2 comments

The prices of dairy products continue to show a contrarian movement. Typically, the upcoming holidays provide impetus for higher prices, but 2017 is going to be the bummer. It means that the chance of record high milk prices is starting to decrease. More in a new flash.

There will never be a record milk price, they will take care of that. The consumer must have a cheap affordable food package.
Inflation correction will never be applied , if that had happened the price would have been at 0,75 - 0,80 cents long ago .
People used to spend more than 70 % on food , now it is between 40 - 50 % .

Dear Frisian Breton.

According to the CBS, in 2015, people in the Netherlands spent only 11% of their income on food.
Especially in a time with many overweight people.

RFC makes it very easy for the trade by warning the farmers that there will be a standstill if they continue to milk like this so the prices are talked down again because each one will come anyway
